Rough Roman Memes

387 readers

A place to meme about the glorious ROMAN EMPIRE (and Roman Republic, and Roman Kingdom)! Byzantines tolerated! The HRE is not.

RULES:

  1. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. The past may be bigoted, but we are not.

  2. Memes must be Rome-related, not just the title. It can be about Rome, or using Roman aesthetics, or both, but the meme itself needs to have Roman themes.

  3. Follow Lemmy.world rules.

Not sure where to start on Roman history?

Reform, quite possibly, but in what way? To what degree? The Republic's constitution was a mess, and I don't know that there was any salvaging it without rebuilding it from the ground up - or scrapping it, as Augustus effectively did.
